belong to a Mr. J.R.R. Tolkien. I only own Adrial.
They started walking down the road as Adrial pointed different things out and showing him were different people lived. "I am very happy that I am getting a tour of this place. I was afraid I may get lost without one." She laughed at the thought of an elf getting lost in the Kingdom of Rohan. She found it quite funny. They had reached the pub when Legolas grabbed her arm and said, "Are you sure you want to go in there with the strange newcomer? I don't want to cause you embarrassment."
"You will cause me no embarrassment. I assure you I am just fine, going in there with you." She smiled at him, grabbed the door handle, and pulled it open. They walked inside and sat down at a table in the corner. Many people were looking at Legolas, wondering with curiosity about him and why he was there in the Kingdom of Rohan. They had seen him, Gandalf, Aragorn, and Gimli get rid of Wormtongue but they just couldn't figure out the real reason that they had come.
"Hey Adrial! What can I get you and your friend here?"
"I will have a glass of red wine. Legolas what would you like?"
"Do you all have elvish wine?" The waiter shook his head. "OK, then I will have what she is having red wine."
"OK, I will be right back with your drinks." The waiter walked off and went into the back to give the order to the bartender. He was back before Adrial or Legolas could say a thing. "Here you go."
"Thank You." They took their glasses from the waiter and he walked off and Legolas took a sip. then another. then another. "Legolas, slow down."
"This drink is delicious! It tastes almost identical to the wine from my home land." He took a couple more sips. "I feel as if all my problems have been lifted off of my shoulders. I have no cares in this great Middle Earth!"
"I think you are effected greatly by little amounts of alcohol. You should not have much of this wine."
"But I love it. I can't get enough of it. I will have to buy some of this and take it with me back home."
"You do that." She looked at him for a while and smiled. She wanted to reach over and grab his hand, but she was scared to, she was afraid he would freak out and hate her. She pulled her hands under the table and made fists, she hated herself for not doing it, but she was just too shy and scared.
Legolas finished off his first glass of wine, and called the waiter over for another. "I would like another of these." He handed the waiter the empty glass. The waiter walked off and got the drink. He proceeded back to the table and sat it down in front of Legolas, who immediately grabbed it and gulped it down. "I want more, please." The waiter looking disgusted picked up the glass again and walked off. He brought back a glass of wine plus a bottle of it. "Thank You."
All the while Adrial just sat there and watched Legolas gulp down glasses of wine. She finally decided to herself that she was just going to find out if he liked her. She pulled her hands above the table and picked up the bottle of wine. He stopped all proceedings and looked at her. "Legolas, do you like me?"
He looked at her strangely for he did not know what to say to her. A human girl had never asked him that before. The only other girl that had asked him that was an elf from a couple years ago, before this whole Fellowship of the Ring thing started. He had obviously told her no because of his departure to Rivendell. This was scaring him. He looked her in the eye and said, "What do you mean by like you?"
"You know like girlfriend, boyfriend."
"Oh, well yeah. I guess. I mean. I have never. liked a human before. I. this is a new thing for me."
"Oh, ok. I was just wondering. I mean I like you. Well, I like you a lot. I don't know why, I have never liked and elf before."
"As for me, I have never liked a human lady before. Something has just come over me as I was here. It was like my path was led straight to you."
"It is scary how two people's lives will cross and they never know how or why it happened. Maybe it was just meant to be." She looked at him hard. That was about the deepest thing she had ever said in her life. She really hoped that she wasn't scaring him to death. He just looked at her. His eyes were steady and emotionless. He was stunned.
"I'm, I mean I don't know how to react to all of this. I come to this strange place in search of my lost friends and I find love here instead." He took a drink of his wine, and cleared his throat.
"Are you ok, Legolas?"
"I don't know. I think so. I am just having a hard time reacting to all of this." At this, he looked away from her stare and just sat there in deep thought.
She wondered what he was thinking about. She could not stand this weird silence. "Legolas would you like to leave? We can get out of here. There are people around that are starting to stare at us. We can get some more wine and take it back to my house and stay there and drink it, without nosy eyes."
"That sounds nice." He stood up and offered her his hand. "Come on!" She grabbed his hand and they went to get their wine.
"Sir, I would like three bottles of red wine. I feel like taking it back to my home to drink, you have some nosy eyes in here tonight."
"Right away, ma'am." He walked to the back and got three bottles of wine. He brought them out and handed them to her. He told her how much it would be, and she paid and they were off. They went out the door and up to Adrial's home. When they got to the door Adrial unlocked it and walked in with Legolas close behind.
"Can I get your cloak Legolas?"
"Sure. Here you go." He handed her his cloak and she walked off to put them up.
She came back and got out two glasses and poured the wine. "Here you go, Legolas." He took his glass of wine from her and she walked over and sat down in a chair. He just stood there looking at her. "What in the world is wrong with you?"
Legolas jumped at the sound of her voice. "Oh, well I was.uh it was nothing."
"Oh, OK." She looked at him for a minute and said, "Well, are you going to sit down?"
